5.0 out of 5 stars The best, November 6, 2004

This review is from: Evita / London Cast (Audio CD)

Evita is my all-time favourite musical and this is definitely the best version ever recorded. Julie Covington really is the best Evita they could have picked.
I also have the Original London Cast recording but it just grates on my nerves so much I could only listen to it once. And let's not talk about Madonna's version... who is she kidding?
Buy this one... you won't regret it :)

This review is from: Evita / London Cast (Audio CD)

This is an excellent version of evita. I prefer julie covington and colm wilkinson to patti lupone and mandy patinkin. Julie to me sounds like a natural evita and colm does a great job; he has an edge to his voice that patinkin most assuredly does not. The only problem is this a 1976 recording and does not have the clarity high fidelity of a modern recording, I definently prefer the sound of the movie version even though madonna isn't a world class singer
